Gio s5560m no 3g

Have not tried another virgin sim. I do have a spare that came with the phone spose I could try it although its sealed up in the packaging still.

Live in northern Alberta and the nearest city with virgin phone sales is 2hrs away hence the wait to get fixed. Surprise surprise Samsung did not phone me back today like they said they would either.

Found one other post on here of a fellow in Norway with no 3g can't enable or disable but no answers on his post to the problem. I'll wait till the weekend and go to the city and see if Bestbuy has an activated sim they can put in and try.

Thanks for the help and I will update when I get it figured out.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] wutname:
i had the same connection problems, try going back to your stock ROM and take note of your APN settings, once you flash back to CM you'll notice the rom made several changes!

changing the APN settings back to stock, fixed any connection issues i had (:

hope i helped! (i'm using CM7.2 RC1 B1 KANG on my BELL 5660M)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] mjlee1975:
s550m 3g

Problem is I am using the stock rom, the rom that came with the phone is the one giving the problems. Sending the phone back for "repairs" and we will see what comes of it.

I'll keep you all updated.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] gotenk1:
I'm new here and I tried to read all the information to get a good idea around flashing the S5660M. I also have the bell version.

I'm going to put down the steps, if anybody can give me pointers or correct any mistakes. That'd be great, I want to put CM7.1 or 7.2, whichever one is stable enough for all functionality to work. Speed is not an issue as I am giving this phone to my grandpa who needs a chinese language display system which Samsung didn't include in the original ROM.

1. Root phone

2. Install ClockworkMod Recovery

3. Reboot into recovery mode, make backup using Nandroid? I heard there's other tools that can be used. I'd like to backup the original ROM.

4. Download the desired CM from recovery mode onto SD card

5. Delete cache and wipe data

6. Choose the new ROM to be flashed and wait

I think that's the general idea, is there any key steps I am missing?

Sorry again for asking but I want to make sure I got the correct steps for S5660M.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
You are right. But remember after you flash CM7, then install gapps.zip wich can be found in cm7 thread, so you have google apps, then your done.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] gotenk1:
Thanks for your info.

I read some more stuff yesterday(a lot of variance :eek:)

Some people mentioned titanium backup. Which one is better? nandroid or titanium backup to save up the original ROM?

Also, is Universal_GB_ROOT_v2.zip the best/safe way to root a S5660M?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
Yes, the gb_root.zip or superoneclick.

Superoneclick can be downloaded from shortfuse.org

Make sure you have the usb drivers, usb debugging on.

Then connect your phone via usb, wait for it to connect and press root, then your done

Just got an HTC Rezound and was just wondering if I could tether my Kindle Fire with my phone and use it's 4G connection when I'm not at home or near WIFI? I apologize if this has been covered but I couldn't find any updated threads on this.

If I'm able to can someone please tell me a working tether application that I can use and how to use it properly. I haven't tethered since my OG.

Thanks everyone.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
if your phone is able to operate as hotspot then you need nothing at the kf

i'm using zt-180 adhoc switcher from the market to tether with pc (connectify)

this has also been reported to work with phones which only support adhoc mode
[Kindle Fire General] zonbal33:
Yes, my Rezound has a hotspot app if that is what you mean, its the official Verizon mobile hotspot app? It came preinstalled on the phone. Verizon charges to use the app though.

I was just curious if I could install an app on my phone and kindle fire so my kindle fire could use the 4G from my phone to access the internet, etc.? So if I'm in a car I can just turn my phone on and my KF will have internet. How do I do that with the app your talking about?
[Kindle Fire General] moviemonkeyinc:
If you want to use Mobil hotspots from Verizon that will work but it will cost you monthly to use. If you don't want to spend any lotr than you have to, you will need to root your phone and install Wireless Tether from Google marketplace and you should be fine.

[HD7 General] moshe22:
So can anyone enlight me with what's the point of having a custom ROM in a Windows Phone 7 platform?

Some of the features I've seen under the development section adds multi language support, xap installs(not sure what this is), but I don't really see any major improvements.

Am I missing something here?
[HD7 General] jwalk74:
Many improvements, Android fanboys wanting to start trouble are not welcome here. Exact same can be said of the hundreds of copycat android roms.
[HD7 General] moshe22:
I'm not a fanboy lol. I have an HD7 wanted to know what was the advantage of adding a custom ROM to my phone.

Thanks anyway
[HD7 General] jwalk74:
I apologize, my mistake. Custom roms now give the user a different look and the ability to sideload apps. Access to file system is also moving along nicely with unlocked roms. There are many advantages allowing for more customization of WP7.
[HD7 General] itsallsubliminal:
I would also like to know. My buddy had his hd2 replaced w a hd7 and he wants to sell it. Im considering buying it and it would be my first wp7 device.

I want to veer away from android for ****z n giggles, but wanna make sure I'm not blowing money for no reason. I love custom roms, so please, what's the advantage, are there special apps that benefit from root access? Are there other devices that get more dev support? Or is the hd7 a good all around device? I'd be paying like 150 for my buddy's refurb which he didn't even take out of the box yet. Can't be that bad of a deal right?
[HD7 General] nxt:
$150 is a lot for the HD7 these days.

Sent from Galaxy Nexus (GSM)
[HD7 General] jwalk74:
If it's in great condition, 150 would seem fair, this device is getting more and more support as time goes on. Gen 2 devices are just starting to come out, so it is not really outdated yet.
[HD7 General] itsallsubliminal:
Its an unused refurb from asurion so yeah its in perfect shape. Now I'm all on the fence about superAmoled or not cuz a Samsung focus will run me around 150 aswell. I am definitely itching bad to get a wp7 device .....

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JazzMac251:
Two small pinpoints of white light on the screen. Are these dead pixels? Stuck Pixels?

I'm guessing that either way I should exchange it. So, apparently Asus is going to be having quality issues?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] biggem001:
http://www.flexcode.org/lcd2.html

let it load

select "fix my screen"

if it doesnt go away after it runs... if it doesnt auto close after a minute, just close it

its a dead pixel

return son!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JazzMac251:
No dice. Thanks anyway.

Guess this bad boy is going back...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Evo_Shift:
I got a replacement Prime yesterday and thought everything was perfect until I opened my web browser to google, which is pretty much all white and noticed a bright spot like you are describing in the title. Mine are definitely NOT stuck/dead pixels. I know because I returned my first one in part because of stuck pixels. It's almost like these pixel(s) allow slightly more light through than the adjacent pixels. Sort of like light bleed but not at the edge of the screen. I can only see it on white or very, very light backgrounds. It disappears entirely on darker colors.

It is unfortunate but I will not replace this again for a third time. It goes away unless my Prime is charging or docked (which I assume is because it is similar to the tablet being plugged in) and can only be seen on an all white background. I will never use my tablet plugged in, I charge it at night when I sleep, and the limited amount I have it docked is not an issue since it only shows up on an all white background and seems less noticeable than a dead/stuck pixel. Honestly, a smudged screen is more noticeable/annoying. Since I don't use my dock much it will probably end up having a dead battery anyway which means I really wouldn't see it much, unless the battery in the dock is required for it to function while attached, I'm not sure but will find out. Thinking about it I guess it probably does need to be charged for the ports and everything to work unless it leaches off the tablet. Who knows...I'll test it at some point.

It is kind of strange though and I really dislike trying to justify a flaw to keep a $500 device but whatever. IPS screens have some nice benefits but they seem to have a lot of flaws too like bright spots, pretty bad light bleed and more stuck pixels than I am used too. I went back and forth in my OCD head so many times about how many times I would exchange or return this device before I get one that is pristine but if I return it there is nothing else that interests me.

Asus had quality issues with their past Transformer and to think the 1080p tablet will be any different is ignorant.

Anyway, end blog. Since that's what XDA is now ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DroidHam:
Where did you guys get yours from?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Evo_Shift:
Best Buy, ordered 1/6.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Doktaphex:
If it's only 2 pixels and they are not directly adjacent, it's unlikely that they will take it back as that is deemed an acceptable tolerance for dead/stuck pixels. I think you need to have 5 or more total or 2 directly adjacent.

Pretty much all manufacturers use this guideline I believe. I hope I am wrong and you do get to exchange it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DroidHam:
I had one dead pixel on my Xoom and Best Buy replaced it without even turning it on to verify
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
I had two stuck pixels when I first got my Prime. Running pixel fixer apps didn't fix the problem. However, both of them have "unstuck" themselves after a few days of use. If you have some time before you have to return it, you may want to wait a little.

EDIT: Check that. I just ran a dead pixel test and only one of the two unstuck itself. The other one is so unnoticeable to me that I haven't seen it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nednapalm:
Same issue here, bottom right of the screen, small patch of white light in the browser window about an inch from the corner..

Not sure whether to return, the rest of the tablet is awesome!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
I just got another one and about 7 dead pixels the kind you can see on

Black screens and also slightly a bit of light bleed where the headphone jack is

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] modestone:
Hey guys, I have been trying to get a couple things tweaked in the stock browser, and kept getting advice that simply did not work on my device.

I have finally found out how to get the stock ATT bookmarks fully gone, and better yet, have figured out a way to have the browser maintain your user agent (and any other settings you change in the debug menu) after reboot/reload of browser.

You must have root access and a little know-how.

For the bookmark removal you need the app SQLite Editor, which you will then use to navigate to the "Internet" app database, then browser2.db, then bookmarks.

From here you can just delete out the lines with the offending bookmarks, or change them so they are editable.

Awesome!

For making the browser maintain debug mode, and therefore any settings you set in debug mode (aka user agent), you will be editing an XML file.

Using a root enabled file browser go to;

/data/data/com.android.browser/shared_prefs/

and edit the file "com.android.browser_preferences.xml"

*note you may need to change the permissions of the file first

In this file you will be ADDING this line;

<boolean name="debug_menu" value="true" />

I added it to the top of the file.

Now debug mode will always be on by default, and any settings you enable or disable in there will be remembered even after a reboot.

I like this method of User agent assignment, because I also use a couple other options in the debug menu.

My personal tips for debug menu options;

I recommend turning on "light touch" (seems to help with scrolling), "Normal Rendering" (makes pages look like they do on regular pc browser), and I also disable "wide Viewport" which also helps with "Normal Rendering" to display pages more like they are viewed on a desktop.

Some of those settings are more about personal preference, I personally like to see the webpages as close to how they look on my desktop as possible.

As a side note, in addition to making pages look more like they do on a desktop, changing these things seems to speed up the overall rendering of the browser.

For example when scrolling through large pages, there seems to be much less time taken for it to draw the new parts of the page, so you rarely are looking at white squares while the browser is redrawing that area of the page.

I think the "Normal Rendering" is what speeds this up the most.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Ikaro:
very interesting but have you tried the rom Overcome for 10.1-8.9?? The browser does all his and more synchronizes perfectly your favorites!!!

This uses a modified version of the stock browser by Motorola for its Xoom.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] quasitime:
I don't believe there is an overcome rom for LTE version of the phone. Could be wrong.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] modestone:
Absolutely correct, no roms and no cwm recovery, just root.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] minkmeister:
What file manager did you use? I tried astro and file manager HD, but I could not access the folder. Oddly enough, when I checked the root user option in file manager HD, it said my device was not rooted. My wifi tether for root app works fine and superuser seems to be running ok. I rooted with the initial method that Orlando organized a week or so ago.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] minkmeister:
Update: (30 seconds later version) I opened titanium backup and it gave me a message that Su permissions were not optimal. Titanium corrected the permissions problem, and root mode is working.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Ikaro:
I know that the specified ROM Overcome exists for the 10.1 and 8.9 only, for the LTE so NOT!

It is also relatively easy to copy the files browser.apk and chromeBookmarksSyncAdapter.apk from Overcome in any other ROM than any other tablet (must have root access).

I did it with the stock rom 10.1 (P7500) and it works perfectly!

Max
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Croak:
Browser.apk in Overcome ROM is Ncrapia Tegass 2 specific, will not work on a Qualcomm Tab.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
i actually googled Ncrapia Tegass 2 before i realized what you did
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Croak:
Heh rofl lol :cool:
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Ikaro:
Are you sure?? you are a programmer to say this??

But I'm sure it works because all the apk are hardware-independent and then work on each device (in this case tablet). Only S.O. must be the same.

In two weeks I will have in hand both the 10.1 (Tegra 2) that the 8.9 LTE (Qualcomm 8660) and I can verify it, then I'll let you know on this thread ;)

I want to use the browser that is not optimized by Samsung because it is the optimized version by Motorola for its Xoom.

The version is 3.2.2 and there is no stock browser on Samsung tablet honeycomb that has this version.

However, when I can I check because right now I can not be 100% sure that it works :)

Max
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] modestone:
The tegra 2 optimized version of the browser may "work" as in let you install it and use it to some degree, but you loose the hardware acceleration that is built into the stock samsung android browser for the Qualcom chip.

So it may work, but you will be running in software mode.
